Noonan of the Alaska Fishermen's racking Company, of this city, yesterday received a let ter from P. A. Berglund, the company superintendent at Xushagak, Alaska, under date of July 24th, in which it is stated that the good ship Drummond. with all hands, will be ready to sail for home about the 20th day of August (yesterday) : and that the steamer Korth Star is due to arrive here on August 30th. All were reported well; and the pack at Bristol Bay is esti mated to be considerably short of last year's. Other information, at hand yes. terday, however, puts the pack of this company at 56,000 cases, which esti mate is not confirmed at the A. F. P. company's office here. It is also said that the Drummond unhappily lost hand at sea, by the breaking of a foot rope on one of the upper yards, two days out from the Columbia river. His same is not reported. The Columbia River Packing Company was also in receipt of news from the far north, to the effect, in substance, that the ship St. Nicholas arrived at Knshagak on the 14th of May, and the first King salmon was caught on June 2nd. It took thirteen days to unload the ship, and active fishing was com menced on the 6th of June. Ingebrietz Ingebrietson, of the cannery crew was taken sick after the arrival of the ship, and was sent to the Moravian Mission, where he died on the 29th of May, an.i was buried on the 30th. Four other men were stricken with typhoid fever on the voyage north, and Superintend ent Belland hag had his hands full with sickness during the season. The pack of the company is reported at 48,000 cases, instead of 43,000 as previously report ed. . Mr. Belland sends word that the St. Xkholas, with her people and cargo will leave for the south on the 20th of August, along with the rest of the fleet. With the strong northwesterly winds prevalent at this season, the fleet ought to be off the mouth of the river short ly after the first of the month. And there are plenty of welcoming hearts and hands awaiting it. t MOXCTONY X. B., August 20.-A three-mated schooner, Norwegian, name unknown, is reported ashore on a sand bar near Cape Baud and likely to be i total loss. The vessel was from Mira micbi, lumber laden, for England. The steamer Lurline is getting stuck- up since sue Kepi alongside tne leie graph for 15 or 20 mile the other morning, and yesterday morning in the Willamette, she gave the Bailey Gatzert all she could do from the Steel Bridge to the Portland Flouring Mills pier; and then, to cap the climax he range ! alongside the Telegraph again for an other spurt, and the spunky little flyer just got right in front of her and threw water all over her until the Lurline lit out for the bank to escape the deluge. She'a getting prvtty gay, it seems! She came down on time last niiiht, and brought the news that the claim-agent of tbe "K line, Walter H. Irvine, has reported the claim held against him by Miss Mary Bliane, the pretty book keeper of the Altoona Packing Com pany, as perfectly justifiable, and has settled it by way of Cupid's court, and that the two happy young people are likely to hold mutual and life long claims against each other that will never require litigating. The following people went up the river on the Lurline last evening: Captain Mathews, F. R. Cutler and O. V. Roetzner. The steamer Aurelia came down the river yesterday afternon at 2 o'clock, lumber laden for San Francisco., Cap tain Bailey, of the river pilot service, who brought hep down, reports that the upper river is clouded in a dense haze of drifting smoke from the forest-fires that are raging up and down the coast range, and was so thick at one time during the passage that he thought he would have the anchor until it lifted, but it elided off and he kept on bis way. The steamer Sue H. Elmore is mak ing daily trips between this city and Garibaldi, on the Tillamook bay, in behalf of the Tillamook county fair, this week, and is reported to be carry- 3AT JStXCElUDBYMONE "Good Clothes for Men Who Know" Clothes Bought Here Pressed Free Malleable Range il l 1 ,73 ' . ijjLj w 111 ; TSPr '1MB 2k .

The fair is said to have opened under uplendid auspice and with magnitlcent attendance. It is hoped here it may be one of the great sue- ceswes of the year. The steamship Comeric left out for the orient on Sunday last at high noon, with an immense load of lumber. The motor schooner Gerald C, has been fog bound in the Siletg river for the pant week and will make It home as soon as she can see to And her way. Among the get-aways outward over the bar of the Columbia on Sunday last, were the barkentine Tropic Hint, and the schooner Sequoia, for San Francisco, and the schooner Halcyon, for San Fedro. The light-house tender Heather came in Sunday evening from a trip up the northern coast. She pu-ked up a drift ing buoy from out of Gray's Harboi and left supplier at Destruction Island and on the light-ship off the Columbia bar. The fine bar tug Wallula arrived down yesterday afternoon from Portland, where she has been undergoing a gen eral overhauling. She will at once re sume her duty on the bar, and do her usual good work under the command of Captain John C. Reed. It is reported that the steamship Manchuria, of tbe Oriental & Occidental line out of San Francisco, bound for Manila, with tJovernor-Gcneral A. U. Smith and stair, on board, u on the rocks off Diamond Head, just outside of Honolulu. The steamer Ywemite arrived in from San Francisco last evening at 5 o'clock, bound for Vancouver, wliere she will load out lumlier for the Hay City; supplementing the load she gets there, by a lot of lumber from the Warren ton mills. She bad a full lint of pas sengers up. The steamship Hilonan arrived in on Sunday afternoon about 4 o'clock, from San Francisco, and went directly on to the metropolis, where she will take on a big load of mixed merchandise for Honolulu, and from there will go to the Sound cities and finish her cargo for the inland dependency. She is a handsome and well-kept ship and a heavy carrier. Water Wagon Needed. On Sunday morning last a fishing boat was sailed in to the O. R. & X. pier and made fast, three men being on board, and all more or- lea under the influence of liquor. Two of the men, after a fashion, made the boat fast and clumsily climbed up the dock-ladder, leaving the third man alone in the craft. He was the drunkest of the three and as soon as he realized that he had been deserted, sought to make the dock also, and in his maudlin efforts, went over the side of the boat backwards and headforemost into the bay. He 'was no swimmer; that was apparent to two citizens who were standing on the Callender dock and witnessed the whole transaction and rushed to the relief of the poor chump struggling to regain the boat; they hauled him aboard, partially sobered, and laid him out in the bottom, wliere after cordially abusing them at the top of big voice ' for awhile, he went to sleep, and they departed with a realiz ing sense that they had, at least, saved his life, whether it was worth it or not. Fishing Reports From Below. A gen tleman from the northshore beaches was in the city yesterday, and says that the fishing season among the traps in Baker's Bay is the worst ever known; that out of 270 traps, but two have netted any profit whatever and that the trap-men over there are blue as indigo in consequence. The catch. yes terday wag meagre in general, but ex cellent in spots, and contributed but little to the sum of supply, with noth ing to indicate a near improvement. DOW BY DEED Mary E.
